I've heard of old patterns being used and I don't see why they couldn't! I've never tried this but plan to someday....

I use deli sandwich paper (15x15 approx0 purchased at a big box store. I cut it to paper size and it runs through my printer easily, but I only feed one page at a time.

I was at Walmart today and saw reams of notebook paper on sale for 82 cents. It's thin enough to use for string piecing.

Lots of ideas on this board. Love it!

I use the 10 inch paper piecing from missouri quilts there are 250 approx. Nice texture and already sized.

These are really nice. I bought a package when it was a daily deal.

I think people get carried away with using old paper when foundation piecing. I use to. All I accomplished was a box full of discarded paper waiting for me to use. LOL. I keep a box of these on my shelf. http://www.samsclub.com/sams/dixie-q...0-ct/160304.ip
